In a press statement signed by his Press Secretary Christian Aburime, Soludo said as he joined millions of Nigerians across the nation in celebrating the Super Eagles’ emphatic 2-0 victory on Saturday over fierce rivals Cameroon’s Indomitable Lions in the Round of 16-match of the ongoing Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) the performance is “heroic, scintillating, and a display of true Nigerian spirit.
“This win against Cameroon is not just a victory on the pitch; it is a victory for the entire Nigeria.
“The Super Eagles have once again united Nigerians under the banner of football, reminding us of the collective strength and resilience that resides within us as a people”, Soludo said.
He commended the team’s tactical discipline, relentless attacking play, and formidable defending, which ultimately secured a well-deserved win at the historic Felix Houphouet Boigny Stadium in Abidjan, Ivory Coast.
